Ground hops
Ground hop cones by Jacob Hooy. Hops (Humulus lupulus) are a plant belonging to the hemp family (Cannabaceae), which grows wild in the Netherlands and Belgium, and was also widely cultivated here in the past. The hop cones (fruit cones) are used as a preservative and flavouring agent in the brewing of beer. Hops are a dioecious perennial plant that overwinters as a rhizome. The species occurs naturally across most of the temperate and cold zones of the northern hemisphere, north of the 32nd parallel. Through cultivation for beer production, hops have expanded their growing range to South America, South Africa, Australia and Tasmania.
